| ompaul | !root this is not the root you are looking for | 08:15 |

| ompaul | hehe | 08:15 |
| ompaul | right I leave it | 08:15 |
| pleia2 | maybe something as simple as "By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu, use the sudo command to perform system maintenance, more information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo" | 08:16 |
| pleia2 | too many commas, but something like that | 08:16 |
| nalioth | pleia2: but there is no root password in a default install | 08:18 |
| nalioth | it's not locked, it isn't there | 08:18 |
| PriceChild | By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. This means that you can not log in as root, nor use 'su'. Instead, you must use 'sudo ' to prefix commands. This has many advantages which you can read about here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo See also !gksudo for launching graphical apps as root. | 08:18 |
| PriceChild | bah that's huge... | 08:18 |
| pleia2 | nalioth: the wiki needs to be updated then :) I copied from there | 08:18 |
| pleia2 | PriceChild: that's not bad, I think such an important thing can be longish | 08:19 |
| Pici | !gksudo | 08:20 |
| ubotu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using sudo <GUI-application> See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info | 08:20 |

| PriceChild | One minute while I look at logs. | 08:45 |
| voraistos | i kinda fucked up yesterday | 08:45 |
| PriceChild | And please watch your language :) | 08:45 |
| gnomefreak | atleast i thought it was changed | 08:45 |
| voraistos | sorry :P | 08:46 |
| gnomefreak | ompaul: system-config-printer i think is default in gutsy | 08:47 |
| gnomefreak | i was close | 08:47 |
| PriceChild | voraistos, you "suggested" a command in a public channel that would wipe the entire system of whoever used it. | 08:47 |
| voraistos | wow. alwi know | 08:47 |
| voraistos | but i didnt do it on purpose | 08:47 |
| voraistos | i explained already | 08:47 |
| voraistos | forget the first line (i was actually talking to smo in the real world :P | 08:48 |
| PriceChild | I'm sorry you've confused me. | 08:48 |
| voraistos | " wow. alwi know" -< just forget about that | 08:49 |
| voraistos | :P | 08:49 |
| PriceChild | Ok I'm with you now. | 08:49 |
| PriceChild | But how can you type something like that without meaning to? | 08:49 |
| ompaul | magical powers? | 08:49 |
| voraistos | well, that guy wanted to get rid of some files the hard way (root was needed) | 08:50 |
| ompaul | !root | 08:50 |
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 08:50 |
| voraistos | so i added the -rf extra to what a previous guy said | 08:50 |
| ompaul | dude never ever suggest that root is needed | 08:50 |
| voraistos | i didnt suggest that ! | 08:50 |
| ompaul | voraistos> well, that guy wanted to get rid of some files the hard way (root was needed) | 08:50 |
| voraistos | by root i was meaning sudo | 08:50 |
| voraistos | root access rights :P | 08:51 |
| PriceChild | and I guess that by sudo rm -rf /* you meant something else | 08:51 |
| ompaul | irc does not translate what you mean into what I understand | 08:51 |
| voraistos | well, the thing is, | 08:51 |
| voraistos | i didnt mean /** the bash way | 08:51 |
| voraistos | i was just meaning whatever path to file* | 08:51 |
| PriceChild | voraistos, The ban has harldy lasted 24 hours, I'd suggest you come back in a couple of days. | 08:52 |
| voraistos | i said damn and was about to apologize, but i was banned | 08:52 |
| PriceChild | hmm | 08:52 |
| voraistos | well, the protocol says 24 hours :P | 08:52 |
| voraistos | hey come on | 08:52 |
| PriceChild | ahh I see you in my backlog | 08:52 |
| PriceChild | one minute | 08:52 |
| voraistos | i havent been on the channel for a long time | 08:53 |
| voraistos | but i used to give quite a lot of support | 08:53 |
| PriceChild | voraistos, I have a very big backlog | 08:53 |
| voraistos | lol | 08:53 |
| PriceChild | gimme a minute for discussion please | 08:53 |
| voraistos | kk | 08:53 |
| PriceChild | voraistos, we are going to remove the ban, please be careful in what you type, IRC does not translate meaning something but typing something else well ;-) | 08:57 |
| voraistos | ok :) | 08:57 |
| voraistos | thank you | 08:57 |
| voraistos | you dont remember me , do you ? | 08:57 |
| PriceChild | Have fun. | 08:58 |
| PriceChild | I remember you from my backlog earlier... but nope I don't. Toooo many people on irc. | 08:58 |
| voraistos | fair enough :P | 08:58 |
| voraistos | i used to have my own channel to help people | 08:59 |
| voraistos | because the main channel was just sooo busy | 08:59 |
| PriceChild | Anything else we can help you with voraistos? | 09:02 |
| voraistos | err no :) | 09:29 |

| PriceChild | Hi bony, how can we help? | 10:06 |
| bony | i think my nick is blocked by ubuntu channel | 10:06 |
| PriceChild | One moment. | 10:06 |
| PriceChild | bony, you have been banforwarded into #ubuntu-read-topic | 10:06 |
| PriceChild | So please go there and read the topic :) | 10:06 |
| bony | PriceChild, well i have read the help page | 10:07 |
| bony | but it was of no use | 10:07 |
| bony | my nick bony is blocked | 10:07 |
| PriceChild | To condense it down into a line... | 10:07 |
| PriceChild | Please reconnect to freenode on port 8001 then come here and ask to be tested for the dcc exploit. | 10:08 |
| bony | PriceChild, hmm ok i will do that and will be back | 10:08 |
| === bony [n=bhuvan@swecha/bony] has left #ubuntu-ops ["Leaving"] | ||
| PriceChild | When he comes back I'll ask him what part of the instructions he had trouble with... | 10:09 |
| === bony [n=bhuvan@59.93.65.44] has joined #ubuntu-ops | ||
| bony | PriceChild, hi now i am back after changing the settings | 10:11 |
| bony | i still get redirected to ubuntu-read-topic | 10:11 |
| PriceChild | Ok | 10:12 |
| PriceChild | if you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit it explains that you are NOT automatically allowed back into #ubuntu | 10:12 |
| PriceChild | bony, congratulations you have passed the test. | 10:12 |
| PriceChild | I will remove the banforward now. | 10:13 |
| bony | PriceChild, thank u a lot :-) | 10:13 |
| PriceChild | However could you give me a few moments to tell me what you found difficult about the instructions so that we may improve them for others? | 10:13 |
| bony | well first thing was that i was in panic when i could connect to #ubuntu | 10:13 |
| bony | so i missed the name of the the channel to which i was redirected | 10:14 |
| PriceChild | and you didn't read the topic either? | 10:14 |
| bony | but when i read about ubuntu-ops i though this would be the right place | 10:14 |
| bony | but then when i saw the topic every thing was fine | 10:14 |
| rob | people read topics? | 10:14 |
| PriceChild | But if you didn't see the name... or read the topic... then how did you know you weren't in #ubuntu ? | 10:14 |
| bony | yes i didn't read the topic | 10:14 |
| mc44 | rob: every time you don't read the topic, god kills a lolcat | 10:15 |
| bony | PriceChild, well it was simple by seeing the users there were very few users on the right site of xchat window | 10:15 |
| PriceChild | Right.. | 10:15 |
| bony | so i guessed that something is wrong and then i saw the channel name and then the topic | 10:15 |
| bony | :-) | 10:15 |
| rob | mc44, so he should, but I hear those things don't have a great life expectancy too | 10:15 |
| PriceChild | bony, so you instantly joined the channel mentioned in the topic but didn't read the rest of it? | 10:16 |
| bony | well yes | 10:16 |
| PriceChild | Ok thanks. | 10:16 |
| bony | you are welcome | 10:16 |
| PriceChild | Is there anything else we can help you with? | 10:16 |
| bony | well right now there isn't anything that is wrong well i would like to learn about nickserv and chanserv some time later i will be back :-) | 10:17 |
| bony | thanks for assisting me PriceChild | 10:17 |
| PriceChild | #freenode for that | 10:18 |
| bony | ok | 10:18 |
| PriceChild | heads up - Randall in #ubuntu *watches* | 10:18 |

| PriceChild | right there | 10:19 |
| PriceChild | People are idiots. *head desks* | 10:19 |
| PriceChild | Could we make it any easier? :( | 10:22 |
| Gary | PriceChild, hehe | 10:22 |
| mc44 | PriceChild: you could set a bot to send a script via dcc that automatically reconfigures the popular clients ;P | 10:25 |

| Pici | hi? | 12:32 |
| pppoe_dude | how come my blimpdude nickname is forwarding to #ubuntu-readtopic? | 12:32 |
| Pici | Did you read the topic? | 12:33 |
| pppoe_dude | yes | 12:33 |
| pppoe_dude | but my pppoe_dude nickname doesn't do that | 12:33 |
| pppoe_dude | only my blimpdude one | 12:33 |
| PriceChild | pppoe_dude, because we banforward on nicks | 12:33 |
| PriceChild | pppoe_dude, please reconnect on port 8001 anyway | 12:34 |
| PriceChild | and ask for a test | 12:34 |
| pppoe_dude | k | 12:34 |
| pppoe_dude | will do that later when im done | 12:34 |
| pppoe_dude | thx\ | 12:34 |

| PriceChild | pppoe_dude, you are vulnerable now | 12:34 |
| PriceChild | I wonder if it would be ok to banforward that him again? | 12:34 |
| PriceChild | seen as it is kind of ban evasion... | 12:35 |
| Pici | on ppoe_dude? | 12:35 |
| PriceChild | Yeah | 12:35 |
| Pici | I'd say it would be fair to do that. | 12:35 |
| nalioth | banforwarding nicks is not wise | 12:35 |
| PriceChild | yeah | 12:35 |
| PriceChild | hmm i'll change my alias | 12:36 |
| tonyyarusso | I thought we wanted that, since a lot of people will have dynamic IPs and return much later? | 12:37 |
| nalioth | tonyyarusso: cloaks | 12:37 |
| nalioth | pppoe_dude was using a different nick when he got caught | 12:37 |
| tonyyarusso | What about when they don't have a cloak? | 12:38 |
| jrib | well, we could just ban both | 12:39 |
| PriceChild | Does "/cs kf somenick somechan" work for others with chanserv.py ? | 12:42 |
| PriceChild | for me it just kicks and doesn't set the forward grr | 12:42 |
| PriceChild | it won't let me banforward to -read-topic but will to shorter names grr | 12:49 |
| Pici | shorner names with dashes? | 12:50 |
| PriceChild | aha | 12:51 |
| Pici | er, shorter. | 12:51 |
| === nalioth plugs PriceChild into a electric company transformer so his light bulb will go brighter | ||
| PriceChild | wait... hmm... | 12:52 |
| PriceChild | its almost 12 i'm slowing down... | 12:52 |
| PriceChild | no :( | 12:53 |
| PriceChild | yes | 12:54 |
| PriceChild | one - and it doesn't work, but -- together and it did work which confused me a minute | 12:55 |
| Pici | hmm | 12:55 |
| ShockSMX | nalioth / jrib / PriceChild : my bad, it was probably because i was trying to join with a clone | 12:58 |
| PriceChild | ShockSMX, pardon? | 12:58 |
| ShockSMX | i'm already in #ubuntu on a different computer, but same ip | 12:58 |
| Pici | ShockSMX: You were banforwarded to the -read-topic channel for a different reason than that. | 12:59 |
| PriceChild | grr | 12:59 |
| PriceChild | ShockSMX, did you read the topic in the aptly named.... #ubuntu-read-topic ? | 12:59 |
| ShockSMX | Pici: really? what's the reason? | 12:59 |
| ShockSMX | PriceChild: yeah. and switched to port 8001 | 12:59 |
| PriceChild | ShockSMX, ok and the next bit says for you to ask for a test. | 12:59 |
| PriceChild | so would you like a test? :) | 12:59 |
| Pici | ShockSMX: Okay, well we need to manually remove that ban, so you can connect to #ubuntu on the proper computer. | 12:59 |
| ShockSMX | ah, so i'm on some perm-redirect list until taken off by you guys? | 01:00 |
| PriceChild | indeed | 01:00 |
| ShockSMX | okay | 01:00 |
| Pici | ShockSMX: Yes, unfortunately, this is a manual process, not automatic :/ | 01:00 |
| ShockSMX | okay | 01:00 |
| PriceChild | So are you going to ask for a test? | 01:00 |
| ShockSMX | yes | 01:01 |
| PriceChild | congrats | 01:01 |
| ShockSMX | thanks | 01:01 |
| PriceChild | You may now rejoing #ubuntu | 01:01 |
| ShockSMX | i will consider this action | 01:02 |
| PriceChild | Is there anything else that we can help you with here? | 01:02 |
